Increasing Production Speeds via IR Control of Product Internal Temperature

Increasing Production Speeds via IR Control of Product Internal Temperature

By: Exergen CorporationManufacturing.net

Infrared temperature measurement methods of production processes are limited to material surfaces, and thus have a serious limitation in thermal process monitoring, particularly when considering speed increases. To overcome this limitation, a heat balance equation is derived in which the material surface temperature data is combined with other non-contact temperature data to calculate the internal temperature of the product, which in turn is used to optimize control to increase speeds.
